Poor Old Marshal Razaine

Speaking of the recent attempt to kill him, poor old Bazaine said to London Telegraph correspondent that he had come to resign himself during the past years to his painful fate, which doomed him to be an obligatory and enforced victim, a sort Of consolatory holocaust, for defeat that was inevitable. He once more insisted that had Marshal McMahon helped him in time things would have taken a different turn, and he took credit to himself for having avoided lombard ment which would have caused the de- straction of thousands of men. Unfor- tvnately his countrymen were tickle. Asked his opinion as to Gen. Boulanger and the present situation, the ex-marshal sAid that if the chief of the French army were of merit which corresponded with the popularity to which he has attained he might succeed in doing something, but one man was not enough. The war might take place, and the French, in his opinion, were ready so far as effective fighting strength went, but it remained to be seen whether they had changed in tempera- ment or not.-New York Tribune

anger contains put four 1ndIvlQuals who may be so considered.
 Of the 115,000 titled land owners in the whole country nearly one-half are concentrated in nine governments of Little Russia, White Russia and Lithu- ania, and even there the distribution is very unequal; Poltava registers 10, 157, while Kharkov contains only 3,412. In the Baltic provinces the aristocratic ele- ment is insignificant. In the Ukraine more than half the so called nobility might be more properly designated yeo- men, their freeholds being less than 250 acres. In the south and southeast the great territorial magnates predominate, from 40 to 80 per cent. of the estates consisting of more than 12, 900 acres, but even here they are being pushed from their pride of place and social supremacy by new men from the ranks of com- merce
 The numbers of the hereditary nobility are sensibly on the decline In twelve years they have fallen off IS per cent. The diminution of their revenues dates further back and is in a greater ratio The absentee habits of the great nobility and the want of instruction of the smaller, who do not reside upon their lands, ren- der them unfit to be the exclusive occu- piers of the new government posts, in the opinion of the writer above mentioned. He thinks that there should be both a land property qualification and an educa- tional test required in the case of every aspirant to office. From another source it would appear that the aristocratic mem bers of the existing zemstvos are in a large majority, even in the towns, and that they require no special privileges to be conferred upon them by law to enable them to maintain their ascendency as local leaders.
 But very curious contrast is presented by the conduct of these gentlemen in the as semblies of the nobles and in the zemstvos, for many of them are members of both In the former they seldom bring for ward questions of general interest, al though they have a right to do so, and are mainly engaged in asserting their class prerogatives, while in the latter they put themselves at the head of the popular and progressive movement, which is alien, if anything, to their class inter- ests. In this way they show themselves at the same time egotistic and generous, defenders of their personal interests to the detriment of general interests and champions of the latter to the detrinlent of their own.-London Times.

 Yes" some one replied
 Well, Bill is shining example of this principle. Some time ago he had an appointment to meet fellow who had promised to box his jaws. The time came, but Bill had not arrived, and the fellow had begun to cast re- breaches on Bills courage, when a note from Bill, which read as follows, was handed him: Just as was coming to have my jaws boxed, l got . communi- cation from fellow telling me that if I would come down to his place immedi- ately he would shoot me. As q fair minded man, you know that I could not neglect case of shooting merely to attend to the slight matter of having my jaws boxed. o, yes," the old fel- low continued, Bill has q wonderful judgment in regard to business. Takes up the most important matters first, and is consequently never very badly left. "-ArkdnsGU TrdreLer.

 ''Haint nothin' the matter,'' he said, de1iantly, sitting up straight, hastily brushing away his tears and pushing back his jacket little s5 as to display the handle of an old revolver in his pocketsaitThen he looked off across the river at the strange buildings and lost his bravery. and buried his head again and sobbed through his tears:

 There is a project on foot in govern mental circles in Russia for the reor- ganization of local administration, the central principle of which has been rumored to be to base it on the principle of rendering the members of the class of hereditary landed nobility alone eligible for election to the provincial assemblies. The facts disclosed in an essay on the . subjects by MT. Stcheglovitow go to dis prove the practicability of this plan, which could only be advisable, or even possible, if there existed class of noble landed proprietors soundly constituted and more or less proportionally distrib- uted throughout the empire. This is not so. In the north and extreme east of Russia there may be said to be no such class at all, The large province Of Arch
